BB - lol! I do wish we all lived closer ... what awesome meals we all could share!

Zookeeper - that sounds really good!

FarmerDenise - lucky! I can't wait to have fresh, organic, picked from my garden right before using salad greens. Two more months ... sigh.

What is apple breakfast lasagna? it sounds good.

I thought so too so I checked on it. Here is what I found...

Ingredients
Topping:

1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup brown sugar

Lasagna:
12 slices French toast
1 8-ounce package sliced ham
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
1 20-ounce can apple pie filling
1 cup granola

Instructions
1. Blend sour cream and brown sugar tpogether in a small bowl. Refrigerate.
2. Preheat oven to 350F. Layer six pieces of French toast in a buttered 9-by-13-inch pan. Layer ham and half of the cheese over toast. Place remaining French toast slices on top. Spread apple pie filling over toast and sprinkle with remaining cheese and granola. Bake 25 to 35 minutes, until thoroughly heated. Serve with a dollop of sour cream topping. Serves 6.

The apple pie filling and ham together just doesn't do it for me! lol

Where I used to live there was a take out pizza place that made that kind of pizza. It was my favorite! I believe it had mushrooms too.

I have never tried to make it though. Did you make yours? If so would you mind sharing the recipe? I would love to try and duplicate it. Thanks!

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone.. I am not too much better, but my Rx is refilled, so I'm prepared for the worst.

I managed to cook some food today ..and I made a cheesecake for DH, so I can relax again ..sort of.

I put a about a lb. of ground beef in the crock pot (frozen, even) with some dry savory spice and let it cook until it was no longer frozen ..partially cooked. I shredded/chopped half of a large head of cabbage, half of a small onion, a small red bell pepper, several Crimini (brown) mushrooms, some fresh garlic, a few sprigs of fresh thyme and one sprig of oregano, some nutmeg, a little cinnamon and all spice ...and 3+ T. of tomato paste mixed with 2+ T. of greek style yogurt. Simmered all of this until tender ..oh... and a tsp. or so of sea salt, dash of red pepper flakes and a few grinds of fresh black pepper.

I boiled up some Campanelle ..cuz I have no energy to make fresh noodles yet... and tossed them in a little bit of butter before I added them to crockpot.

While everything simmered in the pot, I roasted new potatoes in 3 colors and a white yam, peeled and quartered also ..with olive oil, fresh garlic, rosemary and parsley from the backyard.

I like it ...comfort food ..easy food. We'll see if DH likes it when he gets back.... or he can fill his face with cheesecake.


happyhen.. my sandwich bread is the basic wheat bread recipe in my machine's book... I just add a few pecan pieces, sunflower seeds, and fennel/cumin/fenugreek whole seeds to the mix and it makes a nice "nutty" bread that is tasty just toasted or with various sandwich fixin's, as well. If you need detailed ingredients, I'll try to post them tomorrow ...head and neck are telling me my quota has been reached

I hope you all are well...

Aneesa - thanks for the description of your sandwich bread. I think I can take it from there. It does sound good, and so did your dinner last night! I hope your head is feeling a bit better today.

It was a one pan pork chop meal tonight. I dredged the chops in seasoned flour and browned them, added finely sliced onions and sprinkled chops with a little parmesan cheese, topped all with a layer of thinly sliced yukon gold potatoes and another sprinkle of parmesan and added beef stock. Simmered, covered, about an hour and served with a tossed green salad and farm style white bread.

Tonight, we will have broiled chops from the lamb the neighbors raised. Plus sauted rainbow chard and baked potatoes.

I'm thinking about raising a lamb or two myself. HAs anyone here done that?

Happyhen I might copy your dinner tomorrow night. It sounds great.

I'm just opening some jars of pasta sauce and throwing it over cooked ziti in a casserole dish with cheese on top and melting it all together in the oven. Garlic toast and tossed salad to go with it. Maybe some polish sausage on the side.

We are having a beautiful day here today. I've been doing some yard work and letting the chickens roam around the yard. Wish it were nice enough to drag out the patio table and chairs, but I know the rain is on it's way back in a few days.

Have a good night everyone.

That sounds like a wonderful dinner. I myself have never raised lamb. Only Cornish X chickens and egg layers. I'd give it a try if I had more room to do it though.
